Apparently some people are dumb enough to STILL be asking for it, so let's make things clear: Do NOT ask for re-streams, and do NOT post re-streams. Do not come here and muddle the thread by bitching about PPV. | ||

I fucking LOVE the coloured lighting of their faces, that is just awesome. As long as it isn't disturbing for the players it is something DH/IPL/GSL should emulate. And the overlay in general is great. I really like that they keep the large supply numbers beneath the nicks. | ||

So his reward for not losing at all, and suffering his first loss, is to be down in the series?? If he wins the first BO3, he wins. If he loses the first BO3 it becomes a BO7. His reward for not losing is to need to win one BO3 to seal it, and if he loses that BO3, he gets a second chance in a continuation BO7. | ||

(5 of 7 if you count pre-Koren invite events). These guys are total beasts! In terms of their practice and play they must be doing something right. 'Best' is a subjective term but Huk has to be the most consistent winning foreign player. I see them both having another great year. non korean protoss OP, well...almost  | ||

Also Leenock has fallen off since, while DRG is at the top. who is the best player right now if not DRG? | ||

But the fact that that's what it is doesn't make sense because obviously, in the finals, you'll be playing the same person, so it's a disadvantage. | ||

MarineKing That's really a feat. You can't deny it. He's really a monster right now. Btw i'm still not sure how to understand the 3-1 rec against parting. Isn't it 2-0 then 2-1 or something ? Or is it simply a best of 7 starting 2-1 in favor or parting ? Edit : Nevermind just read the last posts... Indeed that's so confusing. | ||

It is a macro build, and it kills greedy terrans at the same time. This is exactly how I open on ladder all the time and it is a great build in my opinion. You cut drones temporarily, but then you don't get contained on two bases, you get a fast 3rd base and catch up or pull ahead very quickly. Yea on NA ladder. I rest my case, this is high level progaming. Diff ? | ||

Drg is tasteosis new lovechild. more like new lovezerg. although you must have missed artosis mentioning that genius played terran in bw and is therefore unsurprisingly in the finals of the GSL.
